All:

My apologies about the non-functioning link... Thanks for letting me
know, Dan.

I also want to correct my "Not Pro-RE" statement.  The article is
definitely "PRO-RE"...  I read it better...  Guess my Hypersensitive
Union Radar detracted from the rest of the article setting in...  Please
forgive...

The content of the article that grabbed my attention is the glaring
truth behind why Unions exist... Propose tossing $300 Billion out there
over 10 years and they suddenly "get green"... 

The excerpt is pasted below:

"A more ambitious effort called Project Apollo, a 10-year, $300- billion
research plan to promote energy efficiency and reduce dependence on
foreign oil has just been endorsed by 10 major labor unions, including
steel and auto workers.
 
And why are the big unions suddenly green? Because cheaper energy will
preserve American manufacturing jobs, which are now hemorrhaging to the
Third World.
 
"We believe this plan can create good manufacturing jobs, good
construction jobs, can improve public infrastucture, can be good for the
environment and can reduce our dependence on foreign oil," said Leo
Gerard, president of United Steelworkers, at a news conference last
week."


Anybody wanna guess how much good actually comes of Your $300 Billion
after 10 years versus what it could be if the Unions weren't first in
line to take it?  Ooops.  I gotta go now.... It must be breaktime...
I'll walk around until I find out for sure....

I copied the entire article into Word if others want to read it...
Contact me off-list...
